The people, mission and context<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The mission of Foster Family Alliance<\/a> (FFA) is to educate, advocate, support and promote partnerships that lead to positive outcomes for children, youth and resource families of North Carolina. The organization supports children and youth in foster care and dedicated families and professionals that care for them. FFA provides support across social services, adoptive families, and public\/private agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The problem<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For adopting families, the organization’s communication and structure can be complex and confusing. Project sponsors at FAA wanted to investigate how it could change the way adoptive families get access to vital information and resources to best equip themselves to support the adoptive child’s well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n
